Well apart from breaking the atc unit, I have 3 working switches!

Though, while both consoles were out of the car is take the opportunity to take a before and after photo.

Ok, decided to tackle the switches AGAIN!!

For anyone who needs to know and for guidance on here:

Front fogs have 5 wires:-

YELLOW - NC
RED/BLACK(1) - C
RED/GREEN - +ve for tell-tale light
RED/BLACK(2) - +ve for switch light
BLACK - -ve for both lights

(dead simple huh!)

Now the rear foglights have 4 wires:

RED/YELLOW
RED/BLUE
RED/BLACK
BLACK

but I'll be buggered if I can figure out what is what! All I have discovered is if I hook up:-

RED/YELLOW - NO
RED/BLUE - C

then when I press the switch, fogs come on....when I press it again, nothing!!

I used the multimeter and using BLACK and RED/BLACK as the end terminal, I got the following voltages, if this helps anyone decifer it all!!

IGNITION ON

BLACK/RED - RED/BLUE = 12.9V
BLACK/RED - RED/YELLOW = 0V
BLACK/RED - BLACK = 0V

IGNITION ON and LIGHTS ON

BLACK/RED - RED/BLUE = -0.8V
BLACK/RED - RED/YELLOW = -13.7V
BLACK/RED - BLACK = -13.7V

IGNITION ON, LIGHTS ON and FOGS ON

BLACK/RED - RED/BLUE = -0.9V
BLACK/RED - RED/YELLOW = 0.11V
BLACK/RED - BLACK = -13.7V




IGNITION ON

BLACK - RED/BLUE = 12.0V
BLACK - RED/YELLOW = 0V
BLACK - RED/BLACK = 0V

IGNITION ON and LIGHTS ON

BLACK - RED/BLUE = 12.8V
BLACK - RED/YELLOW = 0V
BLACK - RED/BLACK = 14V

IGNITION ON, LIGHTS ON and FOGS ON

BLACK - RED/BLUE = 12.8V
BLACK - RED/YELLOW = 14V
BLACK - RED/BLACK = 14V

All help would be appreciated!!
